Luxury European designer Gucci has launched its Heritage range to celebrate its newly renovated Rome store. The one-of-a-kind collection pays tribute to the iconic Italian fashion house’s rich history.
Everything old is new again in this limited edition line. Gucci’s creative director Frida Giannini has resurrected several classic handbag models and a 1950s vintage print called Rinascimento. This elegant Renaissance-inspired design contrasts with the purses’ wine-colored crocodile leather trim.
“This classic print perfectly matches the essence of the city,” said Frida Giannini. “Both are rich in tradition, yet full of modern spirit.”
If the floral look isn’t for you, don’t despair. Other purses in the Heritage range are made entirely of exotic leathers, including python, ostrich, and crocodile.
There are five luxury styles in the Heritage collection, including The Jackie and The Bamboo. These beautiful purses are only available at Rome’s revamped Via Condotti store and the new Fifth Avenue store in New York.
